funny i cant seems to find the best solution for this. I use visual studio code at the moment.

I want to bloat up my functions for generating auto documentation using

```auto
/// <summary>
/// hi
/// </summary>
/// <param name="color"></param>

```

I also have some standard one line comments and block comments

I don’t want to look at these big cluttered summary’s and they really are for generating documentation only.

how is this usually handled?  
I can find shortcuts to collapse block comments, or regions, i cant seem to collapse everything.

do you wrap these in regions and close all regions? or close all regions of a specific name?

I suppose what i really want is to never look at these summary comments but leave the rest, but closing all comments is prob ok too

That would be `Fold all Block Comments` in the Command Palette yeah?  
Ctrl + K and then Ctrl + /
